The University Model
We use a university model – where parents can pick and choose from a wide offering of classes to meet the educational and scheduling needs of their child. Children can attend all day - five days a week - or choose from a variety of classes & activities that interest them.
How Payments Work:
11 Week Sessions:
We provide our classes in 11 week sessions. A “program year” is 3 x 11 week sessions for a total of 33 weeks.Choose programs based on days-of-the-week rather than individual classes:
We’ve simplified course selection by allowing you to choose which days-of-the-week you’d like your child/ren to attend. This makes it easier for VV to create cohesive programs for each day your child/ren attends, so we can provide a well-rounded selection of skills, topics, and activities to maximize learning and growth. For parents just wanting to enroll in a class or two - you have the option of choosing classes a la carte. Families who choose a “full day program” for the whole program year vs “a la carte” will save $1 per hour on class fees + 10% off if paid in full up front.
Pricing:
Discount with annual commitment: Although you can enroll your child session-by-session, we want to reward families who commit to a full year program for any given week day. This commitment helps VV to better plan, allocate resources, and hire and retain the right number of mentors.
Committing to an annual program rewards you:Discounted base price of $14/hr vs the a-la-carte price of $15 per hour.
Additional 10% discount if you pay in-full up-front.
Monthly payment plan option - $14/hr plus a 5% administrative fee.
Refunds:
Parents must enroll and pay for their child’s classes before the child participates.
Payments are due before each 11 week session begins.
You must enroll your child fully, even if you are just trying the class out.
If you decide after the first class that you don’t want your child to participate in that class, you will receive a refund minus a 3% admin fee.
No refunds will be issued after the first week of classes.
